We are excited to announce a corporate decision to adopt the Owl as our mascot. The Owl was chosen because of its enhanced ability to see in darkness and for its highly developed hearing.

And so its energy brings clarity and wisdom when most of us would be unable to see and hear through the interference present in our every day life.

Our hope in adopting the Owl is that its energy will bring us clarity, truth, wisdom and foresight in managing the world’s challenges to further advance literacy around the planet.

With this goal in mind, we reach out to you our listeners and ask you to name our mascot. We are all gifted with unique creative talents. We will look forward to your messages through Blog Talk Radio or Face Book.

We thank you for your participation and as always for listening.

This is a special presentation broadcast over two days  starting August 11 2012  The program will conclude with part two on a day TBA.   The program will deal with a historic problem most visitors to Washington DC never encounter.   Mor information to come
Washington DC has had a consistent high unemployment rate localized within Ward 8, which saw a climb to 25.2 percent according to figures from the Department of Employment Services. This community located along the banks of the Anacostia River is the poorest within the boundaries of the District of Columbia. This level of poverty is higher than in any U.S. metropolitan area. Closest to this poverty level with a 25.1 percent climb is El Centro, California. Washington’s electoral Ward 8 (southeast) is only four miles from the White House. The poverty rate is 35 percent compared to 18 percent across the city of Washington DC. Figures courtesy U.S. Census Bureau (2011).
This program was adapted and produced by Sherylann Barrington of Radio Literacy One from sources such as Euro news and Aljazeera Set up in 2002 by journalists Danièle Ohayon and Philippe Spinau and supported by their colleagues in the French media, the award-winning House of Journalists is the only hostelry of its kind in the world. It has over the years hosted 140 journalists from more than 40 countries who were forced to flee persecution in their homeland. It can house 15 refugees at a time, each of whom stays for six months. At the unique House of Journalists in PARIS, France, in the Parisian suburb of Bobigny, refugee reporters are regarded as heroes and welcomed with open arms, a far cry from their treatment back home.
